Bravery that can lead to a hi-score (7)
I believe the answer is:
heroics
'bravery that can lead' is the definition.
Although both the answer and definition are singular nouns, I cannot understand how one could define the other.
'a hi-score' is the wordplay.
'hi-score' anagrams to 'HEROICS'.
But, I'm not sure how this is indicated.
'to' acts as a link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for heroics that I've seen before include "Bold and fearless behaviour" , "Unduly bold behaviour" , "Outstanding performance" , "Brave deeds" , "verse" .)
